I think the more interesting thing will be what sort of world they will develop since they won't be piggybacking as much off the previous games as they did with Bioshock 2. Honestly, if this rumor is true, I'm glad they avoided the temptation to go back to either Rapture or Columbia. While I feel there are more stories to tell in Columbia, I'd rather they just leave those alone since Levine is no longer involved and they'd most likely just feel like hollow money-grabs. A fresh take will give them a lot more freedom to tell a good story rather than trying to write backwards to make sure everything fits with the previous games.It will be interesting to see what this will be like without Ken Levine, and more importantly, all the Irrational Games folks that are off designing new games. Bioshock without them is like The Twilight Zone without Rod Serling. And the last time there was very little involvement was Bioshock 2 and that game was deplorable. Almost swore off 2k games when they butchered Mafia 2 for DLC...
I liked 2 for what it was: A chance to revisit Rapture and learn more about it. While 1 was about the city, 2 was more about the people who inhabited it. The story was weak and felt a little retcon-ish, sure, but I still really enjoyed it.Am i the only human being who liked 2? The second half of the first one was intentionally taunting of the player and its loss of agency.
2 was a human story from a dude in a robot suit.
